We enjoy the confidence of expecting continued power

We are new to the Generac world Our permanent home is in a country setting that is one windstorm and broken tree limb away from power outage So we have been with Generac for five months now and admit that it is a difficult product to review The main reason for that is you never know whether it's been on or not I know for a fact that our power was lost and the Generac functioned perfectly one time at 1 AM The main thing I love about this unit is Having the confidence that if and when it's needed we will have continued power So far our experience has been very positive

Best investment ever

I purchased my Generac and the installer that represented Generac was wonderful explained everything and was done in a timely fashion. The Generator was up and running and with in a few days I lost electric for 12 hours and the generator kicked in and we where lite up like a Christmas tree at night when our neighbors where in the dark. ( felt bad) since then we have lost power two more times (this is so un usual for us) since then. I have been telling everyone that will listen to me they have to get one. It has more than paid for it self since my husband is handicapped and must have electric. Thank you for a great product. Gerry

Delivers as advertised

Generac system delivers power as advertised. System comes on within 3 seconds of power failure, runs my entire house and shuts off automatically when electric is restored. I appreciate the weekly system check that the Generac generator performs. I keeps me and my family assured that we will never again be without electric power.

Standby Power can't be a bad thing

The Generac installation was a matter of eliminating the potential for another long-term electrical outage as had occurred 18 +/- months ago. I have every confidence that the device will function when it is needed, although the need has not occurred since it was installed. It was a matter of not wanting the inconvenience or losses from an electrical outage when I could afford to prevent it. With the device auto-starting weekly, which is not offensive to my home's community, I feel assured that I have done what's necessary to maintain my home and lifestyle regardless of the periodic failure of my local utility to provide power 100% of the time. I am sufficiently satisfied such that I am in the final stages of installation of an identical unit for my "other" home where my son and his family live. The idea is to have it and not need it instead of needing it and not having it. It is a lot better than having a portable gasoline-powered generator which must be connected for use if ever needed (especially when being away for long periods might preclude the ability to re-power the house).

Highly Satisfied!

I purchased the first unit for our home and a second unit for our cottage, about a month later. The units are performing great, they are currently set to cycle on for 5 minutes once per week. Had one very short power loss at our house and the generator did its job. It started within seconds of the power loss and shut down promptly after the power was restored. I am very satisfied with the design of the unit and the installer did a great job!

This product gives peace of mind.

We were out of town when the only power outage we have had since we purchased the generator occured. However, it appears taht the generator did operate during that outage. Our primary feelings is that we know we are prepared in the event of a long outage.

Seems ok

We actually haven't had to use it for an emergency yet but we had an ice storm recently and we weren't anxious about the power going out because we had this generator. I am glad to see the design changes in the newest model because my electrician said this was tough to hook up the primary feed wires.

Great product

We live about 27 miles outside town and loose electricity an average of 10 to 12 times per year ranging from a few minutes to several days. We bought the 22kw version of the Generac whole house generator in November 2016 it been just over a year now and I must say WOW. Not only can you not hear the machine while in the house, with such a quick response time when the power goes out you miss very little. It takes a minute for the generator to come on, and when it does you back to normal. This was by far the best money we spent in a long time. Great product, I tell everyone who asks this is the only one to buy.

Great for office & home

I bought a Generac for my CPA office first. The electric has been out in the past during January- March when there are IRS deadlines. I now do not have to worry about an outage. I work on a client's database at my home away from the server @ the office....It just made sense to purchase a Generac for my home. We installed it behind a crepe myrtle on the side of the house. I am very glad that I purchased Generac.
